Chapter 787 Back
The Pingwa matter is full of uproar.

It was the first time that the Central Plains Dynasty seriously said that it wanted to suppress the Japanese, which is definitely a rare thing.

What Yang Reform held in his hand was today's Dibao.

Since Yang Reform decided to Pingwa, it is natural that there will be no shortage of corresponding publicity.

The headlines on the front page of this mansion newspaper are about Pingwa, listing the damage of Wa to the Ming Dynasty one by one, as well as the fall of Liaodong and the rise of the Eastern Captives.

In addition to these, introducing Japan's geographical location, political history, and population situation also consumes a lot of space.

Although Yuan Chonghuan was appointed as the supervisor of Pingwa, he did not leave Beijing immediately, but was still on the platform.

"The Qing family's suppression of Japanese wars this time will take at least three to five years, or even more. The Qing family must be prepared!" Yang Reform said on the Di Bao.The battle plan for Japan has been basically determined, so the time can be basically determined, basically guerrilla blockade warfare will be the main focus, and the Imperial Association Army will be formed to harass Japan instead of fighting a battle.Large-scale decisive battles pay attention to one blow to kill, and the emphasis is on the shorter the time, the better, so as to avoid more consumption and drag down domestic finances, but guerrilla warfare is just the opposite, and the enemy's strength is continuously consumed by extending the time. Therefore, what is needed Time is very long.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the minister is ready." Yuan Chonghuan replied softly.He is just a person who can't stay idle. He is a person who would rather go to the battlefield and die than live a stable life.When I was a magistrate, I thought about going to the battlefield. When I was a Beijing official, I was able to "disappear" and go to the battlefield to investigate. This is definitely not something an ordinary civil official can do.

"Okay! I have already arranged for the Qing family about the naval fleet. In addition to the original fleets in Japan, Ryukyu, and North Korea, the Nanjing Shipyard has also built a lot of new ships for the Qing family, which are useful for combat. There are warships, supply ships, and fast ships for sending messages..." Yang Reform said.For today's Yang Reform, these warships and fleets are just a matter of one sentence, and there is no need to worry about it at all.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the completion!" Yuan Chonghuan sincerely thanked him. This matter basically relied on the emperor's support. Without the emperor's support, it is basically impossible to succeed.

"Judging from the terrain of the Wa Kingdom, combined with my strategy, the Qing family must have one thing in their fight against the Wa..." Yang Reform pointed to the sand table.

"Please show your Majesty!" Yuan Chonghuan said.

"...This is here..." Yang Reform drew a circle on the sand table.

"Your Majesty mean North Korea?" Yuan Chonghuan asked.

"Yes, North Korea, there is a big hatred between our country and the Japanese country. In fact, North Korea may not be without it. In the war to aid North Korea, who is it to aid? Isn't it North Korea? How can North Korea not hate the Japanese country? Isn't there no blood feud?  … North Korea is separated from Japan by Japan, so we have to borrow North Korea..." Yang Reform said.

"Report to Your Majesty, yes..." Yuan Chonghuan said.

"...This time I am going to avenge my revenge, and I will order the North Korean king to cooperate..." Yang Reform laughed.

"Your Majesty, what do you mean is that North Korea should be used as the vanguard to fight against the Japanese?" Yuan Chonghuan said.

"Yes or no, I have paid such a high price for North Korea, and I will let North Korea assist me in the fight against Japan, so how can the king of North Korea say no?" Yang Reform said, Ming Dynasty of this era The relationship between the DPRK and the DPRK is really the relationship between the master and the vassal state. Yang Reform said one thing, and North Korea will never be allowed to say the other.

"...I have asked the lord of North Korea for several islands and ports in Pingwa, including Nanpu Port, Incheon Port, and Jeju Island. This is the only way for me to go north to Wa. These places , are all excellent ports, which can be used by the Qing family's ships to stop and rest, and this Busan is also among them. Busan is the closest place to the Japanese country, and it will save a lot of trouble when going overseas to fight from here..." Yang Reform said.

"...Your Majesty,...I'm afraid that although Your Majesty has issued an order, the Koreans may not be able to exert their full strength!...If they are allies, I am afraid that the Koreans may not have ideal combat power, and will instead drag down the minister..." Yuan Chonghuan had some doubts He said, he went this time, all the elites, if there are these weak allies working together, it will be bad.

"No, the Koreans are not a friendly army, but the Imperial Association Army! Of course, the names may be different, and there are some differences, but the status and usage are similar. Many dirty things need someone to do them. The Koreans are just right,... …For example, the Qing family took down the city of a Japanese feudal lord, but it is impossible to divide their troops to plunder, which requires these Koreans..." Yang Reform said.

"..." Yuan Chonghuan felt ashamed for a while.

"...In other words, if the Qing family's team besieged the city of a feudal lord and let the North Koreans loot everywhere, the feudal lord hiding in the city can only stare blankly, you know?" Yang Reform added.

"...Yes..." Yuan Chonghuan weakly agreed. Although the robbery was inevitable during the Pingwa period, Yuan Chonghuan still felt a little uncomfortable saying it so blatantly.

"...But it should be noted that the North Koreans are not friendly troops, and our court is not responsible for the safety of the North Koreans. At any time, you must not put yourself in a dangerous situation because of saving the North Koreans. Deal with it..." Yang Reform explained.Yang Reform has a deep feeling for "not afraid of opponents like gods, but teammates like pigs", so he will definitely not let teammates like pigs harm him.

"...Yes, Your Majesty, this..., isn't the lord of North Korea complaining to me?" Yuan Chonghuan asked.

"...No, I have paid so much for North Korea, so what is it for him to send some troops to North Korea? What's more, he just followed me to rob things. Such a good thing, what can he say? There is nothing about the sea. Risk?... When the North Koreans get the taste, even if there are some losses, they won't care... If the North Korean leader is unwilling and dares to talk too much, the Qing family will recruit North Koreans to grab it, and the North Korean leader can still control it On your head?" Yang Reform said.

"...Report to Your Majesty, I understand...but..." Yuan Chonghuan said with shame.

"...It's okay, the main ports between me and North Korea belong to me, and I will take care of them. What's going on, it's not up to the head of North Korea to take care of them. In those ports, Are you afraid that you won’t be able to recruit North Koreans to rob things? Could it be that the Imperial Association Army will be in charge of North Korea? If the Qing family is afraid that the Koreans will not be easy to control, I can send you some from the Mongolian Imperial Association Army to dope the Japanese The Imperial Association Army, or transfer some frontier troops to dilute the necessity of the Koreans... Don't worry, as long as the Koreans get the sweetness, the North Korean leader will naturally be unable to sit still and want to help the Qing family..., In the case of Pingwa, North Korea can only be the Imperial Alliance Army, can only cooperate and assist, and even say that it is a commercial paid cooperation, and absolutely cannot be an allied army. This point, the Qing family must remember..." Yang Reform said.Yang Reform was afraid of "teammates like pigs", and this time he will definitely not want teammates like pigs.Yang Reform is not afraid of offending North Korea. His country was saved by the Ming Dynasty.
Yuan Chonghuan was so ashamed. Originally, he thought the matter of Pingwa was quite upright and glorious, but now it seems that it may not be as glorious as he thought. Listening to the emperor's words, I am afraid that it is full of darkness and embarrassment. , even though he had thought about these things, but now he knew that he might not have thought so thoroughly.

Seeing that Yuan Chonghuan was so ashamed, Yang Reform didn't continue.If we continue to talk about it, if we talk about it more carefully, and say what people are being kidnapped to mine, or slaves to farm, I'm afraid it will scare Yuan Chonghuan.I won’t say these things, but I’m afraid it will be like this in the future. Capital and industrialization are naked exploitation, and those who can squeeze out two or two oils will never squeeze out one or two oils.

Yang Reform made Yuan Chonghuan adapt for a while.He pointed to the sand table again and said.

"This is roughly the north of the Wa country, the side near North Korea... The Qing family looks at this side, the south of the Wa country, which is the side of the Ryukyu country..." Yang Reform pointed to another place.

"...Wo Kingdom is surrounded by the sea on all sides, so there is no need to think about the east side. The south, west, and north sides are surrounded by Ryukyu, Wochao, and North Korea. Advantageous places... North Korea's Busan, Jeju Island, Incheon Port, and Nampo Port. There are not so many useful ports on the Ryukyu side, that is, the Naha port in the Ryukyu Kingdom is more useful..., here, here, If it is possible, maybe we can build a city here, build a forward fortress or something..." Yang Reform pointed to the sea and said, this place will be Tanegashima in the future.

"...Of course, this place is close to the mainland of Kyushu, Japan. Whether you are sure to withstand the Japanese counterattack and build a fortress is up to the Qing family to decide. If it is to be repaired, I can send a ship of cement to the Qing family to help The Qing family hastened to build a fortress port, and the fortress they wanted to build with cement, based on the level of Japanese cannon casting, even if he bombarded it for a few days, there was nothing he could do..." Yang Reform said.

"Your Majesty, it needs to be repaired, it needs to be repaired! If you can get cement to build a fortress, it will be a nail in the chest of the Japanese! With only a few soldiers, the Japanese will be insurmountable. Zuo can support the Korean waters to fight If this place is not repaired, the warships will start from the southern Ryukyu Kingdom, and the distance will be too far..." Yuan Chonghuan said, Yuan Chonghuan, as the Minister of the Ministry of War, obviously, the staff department has been collecting He is aware of the information about the Wa country, and he still has some research on these things, and he will fix it at once, without any hesitation at all.

"...Well, good..." Yang Reform said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Long En!... If there is cement to build it, then a strong city can be built within ten months, and it must be successfully built before the Japanese country has reacted. Once the fortress in this place is completed, it must belong to the Japanese country. Nightmare..." Yuan Chonghuan said.

Yang Reform nodded.Regarding whether to use cement to quickly build a forward fortress, Yang Reform still hesitated, but since Yuan Lengzi wanted it, then give it to him.In the twentieth century, the Japanese used cement forts and watchtowers to bully the Chinese without heavy weapons. Now, I want to give Japan back, although the consumption of cement is a bit extravagant.

"...If the Qing family fights well and has extra money, I can send more cement to the Qing family..." Yang said at the end of Reform.

"..." Yuan Chonghuan was ashamed again, the emperor's abacus was so good, he never forgot to buy and sell!
"...By the way, there is one more thing, I almost forgot to tell the Qing family..." Yang Reform thought for a while.

"Please show your Majesty..." Yuan Chonghuan said quickly.

"...The ports I mentioned to the Qing family just now will build large lighthouses for ships returning at night. Some ports have already been repaired, such as Shanghai, some are still under construction, and some are about to be repaired. This point, The Qing family needs to understand..." Yang Reform said.

"...Thank you, Your Majesty Long En, in this way, Tianjin, Dengzhou, Jinzhou, the coastal areas of North Korea, Japan, Ryukyu, and Shanghai have lighthouses all around the sea, and I will not be afraid of getting lost at sea. No matter where the ships go, there are lighthouses to guide them...Your Majesty, this is a great virtue!" Yuan Chonghuan said, Yuan Chonghuan said with emotion, he himself wants to go to sea, and he has a feeling for the lighthouse on the sea Deep, I wish there were lighthouses everywhere.

"Well, there will be more and more lighthouses, the Qing family can rest assured, I am willing to spend money on this..." Yang Reform said.

"...There is one more thing, the Qing family needs to pay attention..." Yang Reform ordered again.

"Please show your Majesty..." Yuan Chonghuan said again.

"...Although the Qing family is serving as the supervisor of Pingwa this time, I have to say that the Qing family knows nothing about maritime affairs and naval warfare. Understand clearly, you have to pretend to understand, act recklessly, when you encounter something you don’t understand, you should ask more, think more, don’t be afraid of being ugly, can the Qing family understand?” Yang Reform said, and asked Yuan Chonghuan to pacify the Japanese, In fact, it didn’t help much to Pingwa itself. It is still gratifying that Lei Da used them to Pingwo by themselves, but it still took a lot of energy to let Yuan Chonghuan go to Pingwo. This is related to the upgrade of the Navy and the future The problem of civil servants controlling overseas colonies, if we don't make a rule about this matter now, it will be more troublesome in the future.

"...Reporting to Your Majesty, I have self-knowledge. I have some experience in land battles. I can say that I don't know anything about sea battles. When I don't understand, I should ask and learn. Don't worry, I won't." Reckless and conceited..." Yuan Chonghuan's face became hot and blushed.

"...Well, it's good that the Qing family can understand. After thinking about it, it's better to equip the Qing family with a staff team. It is better to have a staff team to advise the Qing family. If mistakes are made, the Qing family can grow up as soon as possible. Let the Qing family make fewer mistakes, what does the Qing family think?" Yang Reform said.Yang Reform ceremoniously launched his own staff system. In order to prevent the military from getting out of hand, we can only use civil servants as much as possible, but civil servants are often unreliable and lack combat knowledge and skills. Therefore, the staff system This system of providing advice and opinions to the coach and preventing civil servants and military generals from becoming big came in handy.

"Report to Your Majesty, everything is according to His Majesty's orders..." Yuan Chonghuan said immediately.Regarding this, he wanted to say something, but he had nothing to say. Whatever the emperor wants, so be it.

"...Well, well, this matter has been settled like this. It's gratifying. Lei Dayong and the others are actually strong fighters at sea. Having them advise the Qing family, make mistakes in checkpoints, and lead troops in battle. It will help the Qing family to speed up. Triumph..." Yang Reform said, although Shang Kexi and Lei Dayong are now leading the fleet, they are actually the staff of the staff.

"The minister leads the decree!" Yuan Chonghuan agreed. He is not unfamiliar with these two people, and he has heard of their deeds. needed.

"...The Qing family's Xing Yuan, I thought about it for a while, let's set it in Busan for the time being, of course, I don't restrict the Qing family to sit here all the time..." Yang Reform thought for a while, and said, Busan is a place far away from Japan. The nearest place, if you attack Japan, you must go here. To put it pessimistically, you can also return to the Ming Dynasty by land here. , It is still very beneficial to calm people's minds.

"The minister leads the order!" Yuan Chonghuan agreed.

"...The Qing family will go and show their signboards. I am afraid that they will face the whole country's backlash from the Wa Kingdom. The pressure is not small. Maybe there will be a big battle with the Wa Kingdom. The first thing to do is If you want to subdue the Satsuma clan and find suitable candidates for the imperial association army from the Wa country, the Qing family must know what to do!" Yang Reform reminded.

"...Your Majesty, don't worry, I already have a plan in my heart. I think that the small ships of the Japanese kingdom are no threat to the giant ships of our court. It's just like when I used small boats and small ships to deal with Folang. The warships of the robots are average, although there are hundreds of them, it seems that there are many ships, but they often cannot pose any threat to the warships of the Fulang robots..." At this point, Yuan Chonghuan's face was red, and the Ming Dynasty and the Frang robots The experience of fighting at sea is now almost repeated, of course, it must be reversed.This time, the people of the Ming Dynasty owned the huge ships owned by the Frangji people, while the Japanese people had small and weak ships that were inferior to those of the Ming Dynasty. Yuan Chonghuan blushed very much when he thought of the embarrassment.

"...Well, that's not bad. The Western barbarians are still very talented in naval warfare. This, I have to admit, I have to learn from them. This time, I still hired them, but they are a fighting force. Extremely strong elite soldiers..." Yang Reform said.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I understand..." Yuan Chonghuan said.

"...Your Majesty, I think that with elite sailors, strong ships and sharp guns, one hit is sure to hit. I want to use Japan's maritime traffic and wait for Japan to respond. Even if the whole country comes to trouble me, It will be a few months later, and at that time, if I still can't subdue the Satsuma clan, I will be guilty..." Yuan Chonghuan said with great confidence, he didn't believe that with the strength of the ship and the guns, he would not be able to subdue a poor Satsuma Fan, according to the information, the Satsuma clan was barren and had no output. It basically relied on Ryukyu's hand to trade with the Ming Dynasty. Now it was driven away by the Ming Dynasty and stopped. But Satsuma.

Of course, if he couldn't beat the Satsuma clan for a few months, he would retreat immediately and go guerrilla everywhere. He would never go head-to-head with the Wa people. Don't you want to fight with the whole country?Then I will attack everywhere and see if you can deploy the same number of troops to defend all places.For this, Yuan Chonghuan is confident.

"Well, the trick to attacking the Japanese country is to 'when the enemy advances, we retreat, when the enemy is stationed, we harass, when the enemy is tired, we attack, and when the enemy retreats, we pursue'. Fight by surprise on its long coastline, let him be attacked everywhere, and nowhere needs to be defended. , and can't defend everywhere..." Yang Reform explained again.

"Report to Your Majesty, I have made a note..." Yuan Chonghuan said.

"...In the country of Wa, although the combined power of the whole country is quite objective, but in reality, the power is very scattered. In his place, a city is often a lord, a daimyo, and the long coastline is Let the Qing family come and go in the backyard, the Qing family went, along the coast, hit the daimyo if you want to hit that daimyo, hit whoever the daimyo is hostile to me, Daming, hit whoever dances happily... If the shogunate is centralized Try to defend the northern coast as much as possible, and Zeqing's family will attack the southern coast, so that he can't take care of both ends, and constantly wears down and weakens the prestige of the shogunate, making the rule of the shogunate weak. It is convenient for my dynasty to act freely in it. Only a scattered and weak Wa country is what my dynasty needs... Hey, the north side will plunder and do things in the name of the Koreans, and the south side will do things in the name of the Ryukyu country. I want to let The Wa people are in a state of desperation..." Yang Reform took the trouble to introduce.

"...Report to Your Majesty, I have made a note..." Yuan Chonghuan agreed.

"...By the way, wars belong to wars, but trade belongs to trade, understand? You can't ban trade just because of wars..." Yang Reform remembered this matter, and he still took the trouble to indoctrinate Yuan Chonghua.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I understand..." Yuan Chonghuan said, needless to say, he also understands this issue. Not only he understands, but basically all the officials of the Ming Dynasty understand that the emperor's decision on matters concerning the sea today is decided by the emperor. The trade in China is also the emperor's. Whoever hinders maritime trade is hindering the emperor from making money, and hindering the emperor from making money is a disaster.

"...Well, so, the Qing family must support the Imperial Association Army as soon as possible..." Yang Reformed.

"Report to Your Majesty, Chen understands." Yuan Chonghuan said.

"...And about Feng Hang, I want to tell the Qing family solemnly..." Yang Reform has a lot of things to explain to Yuan Chonghuan.There is no way, Yuan Chonghuan is going to Pingwo, and he will not explain it clearly to him, I am afraid that he will forget the bad things.

"Please show your Majesty!" Yuan Chonghuan said.

"The Qing family needs to continue to implement my previous strategy regarding the closure of the sailing. It is not allowed to let ships into and out of the sea at will, and there must be no sympathy... This point, the Qing family must keep in mind, and it must not ruin my business. If I know that the Qing family is giving favors indiscriminately and opening the door of convenience indiscriminately, I will never forgive you lightly..." Yang Reform said very seriously.

"Report to Your Majesty, I have made a note..." Seeing the emperor and his serious words, Yuan Chonghuan immediately bowed and agreed.

"...Of course, it's really just a matter of sympathy. The Qing family can still give us a door of convenience. I'm not an unreasonable person...but I know what I need to report..." Yang Reform said.

Yuan Chonghuan was so ashamed that he reported it to the emperor, so is there any good fruit to eat?It would be better not to open the door of convenience for others.Besides, the north and south sailors on the sea are all the emperor's people. He went to open the door of convenience, so the people below would know whether they listened to him or not. Yuan Chonghuan didn't believe that the emperor had no other means of controlling the north and south sailors. .

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I know..." Yuan Chonghuan said with shame.

Yang Reform babbled a lot, finally felt that he had finished what he wanted to say, and was about to call it a day, when he suddenly remembered something.

"...Wait, I thought of something important..." Yang Reform frowned and said.

"Please show your Majesty..." Yuan Chonghuan quickly bowed and waited for instructions.

"Actually, having said so much, I am very dissatisfied with one thing..." Yang Reform thought for a while and said.

"...Please show your Majesty, I don't know what it is..." Yuan Chonghuan said quickly.

"...I am very dissatisfied with the speed of this ship..." Yang Reform paused and said, actually, this has nothing to do with Yuan Chonghuan... Of course, it could be.

"...What does His Majesty mean?" Yuan Chonghuan asked puzzled.

"...I was thinking that the speed of the ships on the sea is still too slow. If it can be faster, that would be great. The time for the Qing family to go to the country of Wa is really too long. If the wind is smooth, it will be fine. One point, it only takes more than a month. If the wind is not smooth, it may take several months. This round and round trip will not be able to make a few rounds in a year. There is really no guarantee... What happens to the Qing family in the Wa country, I want to support It’s not good to go to Qing’s house, the news is exchanged, and all day lilies are cold..." Yang Reform complained.What Yang Reform said is also true. With the communication methods and speed of the Ming Dynasty today, a trip back and forth to the Wa Kingdom can indeed be called "every day". Yang Reform really can't stand this.Of course, Yang Reform did not think of a way out. The relay lighthouses spread across the Bohai Sea, the Yellow Sea and the East China Sea are actually a measure to increase the speed of message transmission. Of course, Yang Reform will not think that the speed is faster.

"...Reporting to Your Majesty, this..., there is no other way. To go to and from Japan, you need to take a boat, and the boat floats on the sea, relying entirely on wind or waves, unlike on the road, you can rely on your feet to deliver urgently... ...Your Majesty, there are now lighthouses all over the sea, in fact, they are much faster than usual..." Yuan Chonghuan said with shame.In fact, the time to travel to and from the Wa country has been greatly reduced. From the original visits every few months, to now, it is possible to visit once every ten days of the month. Of course, it must be smooth.

"I know this, but I am dissatisfied with the status quo. This must be changed! Whether it is to support the Qing family's Pingwa, or to go to Nanyang in the future, it is always inappropriate not to have a faster ship to convey information,... …Let’s not talk about the distance, let’s talk about the Qing family’s place, if you say it’s fast, it’s not going to work if you don’t have a ship that can deliver the news quickly...” Yang Reform said.Yang Reform has been doing some research on warships and ships for a while, and he still has a little understanding of ships.

"...Reporting to Your Majesty, I also have fast boats to deliver news. If there are more complete and dense lighthouses, and the wind is smooth, I can definitely make a trip back and forth to the Wa country between ten and a month. Your Majesty, this is already very fast. ..." Yuan Chonghuan explained in embarrassment, relying on lighthouses, it is possible to achieve a situation similar to that of an express delivery relay on land, allowing ships to deliver messages to sail almost all day and all night at sea. This transmission speed and effect have already It is amazing. If a large number of sailors and crews who are familiar with the sea conditions are cultivated, the time required to go back and forth to Japan will be even shorter. Yuan Chonghuan originally thought that this was already great, but the emperor was still dissatisfied with this..., Yuan Chonghuan except Ashamed, I can only feel ashamed again...

"I know this, but this is not fast enough. I need a faster ship to deliver the news, and there is no need to worry about the influence of wind direction and ocean currents... If the news is delivered from Japan to the capital, it will take a few days or ten days to go back and forth. Alright..." Yang Reform said, when Yang Reform paid attention to ships before, he wanted to build a flying shear ship, but the flying shear ship was obviously not something that the Ming Dynasty could build. Although Yang Reform had this wish, he I really didn't have that much energy to do this. At that time, Yang Reform could be said to be imminent, his butt was on fire, and he was trying his best to extinguish the internal and external Ming Dynasty, the past and the future. Ship, now it seems that it is necessary to get him out of this clipper ship. Even if it can't be reproduced 100%, it can achieve half of the effect, which is very remarkable.

"..." Yuan Chonghua was really ashamed, going back and forth every few days?is it possible?Apart from flying, Yuan Chonghuan really couldn't think of any other way.

Yang Reform has calculated that if the speed can be increased to ten knots, then the distance from Nagasaki, Japan to Tianjin is only about [-] nautical miles, and it takes about three or four days to reach the capital. A round trip can indeed be controlled stably. Within ten days, this will play an extremely important role in controlling Japan.

"...Forget it, I have my own way of dealing with this matter, as long as the Qing family knows, there is no need to be distracted by this matter..." Yang Reform thought for a while, and said, although this seems to have little to do with Yuan Chonghuan, but There is still a relationship, Yuan Chonghuan and Han Yu are an inseparable couple, if you tell Yuan Chonghuan, that is to say, give it to Han Yu, and Han Yu must have a good idea of ​​what you want to do.Han Yu is responsible for building lighthouses. Now his students are going out to fight and rely on lighthouses to live. No need for Yang Reform to say, Han Yu will send up the memorials for building more lighthouses, and he will force Chen to repair them. The benefit of the lighthouse is that you don't have to worry about it yourself.
